"Now I Lay Thee Down" lyrics - MACHINE HEAD

MACHINE HEAD
"Now I Lay Thee Down"

I want to know
How it feels
When we die
Can you take me under?

Dream over
Grieve no more
And breathe one last time
Now I lay thee down

She watched me leave
Kneeling
On the floor
As she takes me under

Dream over
Grieve no more
And breathe one last time
Now I lay thee down

Godless mimicry
White lights cemetery
Flashes of the angel's ivory wings
Images so many broken dreams of pain
Terror
Fear
Crippling

Follow the light into the tunnel
Or will it end up in a black hole?
Follow the light into the tunnel
Dead in its end

Was it love?
Was it murder?
Within the eyes of the beholder

Was it love?
Was it murder?
Within the eyes of the beholder

What have I done?
I've gone and killed the only one I love
How could I do this?
I'm screaming at God
Why do you curse me?
Fuck it, load it, sever the day

Dream over
Grieve no more
And breathe one last time
Now I lay thee

Now I lay thee down
Underground
